And they've honestly worked out well. I'd probably ride in that dressage saddle forever if it didn't inspire such extreme reactions from Charlie lol. As it is tho, I'm hoping Charlie will be here for a while and am more comfortable with the idea of investing in something more suitable for him. We shall see!emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05686949099663199382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-932439930694780998.post-81117551445737864612017-12-25T04:20:54.328-08:002017-12-25T04:20:54.328-08:00Ugh yea srsly Charlie!
